Various amusing or interesting topics, or things that shock and appall me. Kind of a miscellaneous bin.
Yet another (probably Photoshopped) strange Hello Kitty object. Amusing, but I really prefer the assault rifle. (Yeah, I’m getting to this a couple months late, I’m catching up on old posts.) Most amusing comment: That’s what I’m talkin’ about. Just because a girl wants to kill zombies in a gruesome, effective manner doesn’t mean she …
“I’ll be back soon dear, I’ve just got to go pick up some money.” 😉
Tongue-in-cheek, but all too true. Sure, you can learn the syntax of a programming language in twenty-one days, but not how to write readable, maintainable code that isn’t riddled with bugs. That takes experience. It took me the better part of fifteen years to get to a decent level, and it was only in the …
Looking for love is an honorable pursuit, even if it’s “in all the wrong places.” Looking for screen savers… that’s another matter.

Has humanity lost its collective mind? Just because some guys smash their guitars on stage, does everyone think that they have to do it? Are people really that wasteful? (Yes, those are rhetorical questions. The answers are well-known: yes, yes, and yes.) 😉
A good article, and one that will (to quote my sainted grandmother) “scare the pee-water right out” of anyone responsible for corporate-level security. But the main reason I wanted to mention it was for the excuse to put the amusing phrase “your panties in a bunch” into a blog title. 😉
Somehow I can’t see my wife allowing me to practice this move. I don’t speak Japanese, but I’m pretty sure I get the gist of what they’re saying — and it probably includes “don’t try this at home, kids.” (c-square, this is the one I was telling you about.)
Um… what the f***? I have to agree with the first commenter, “es76grl”: Get over yourself, Lindsay-no one even thought the ad was about you until YOU started saying it was…..I hope you don’t get a dime!! (Via Boing Boing)
